Winter stay

We enjoyed a family Christmas here & appreciated the size of the home. The kitchen was great to make our meals & have space for us all to hang out together. The host communicated with me about check in and an issue they had resolved before we arrived. The only minor issue I had was that it had snowed the day before our arrival & I had to shovel the walk & in front of the garage. Overall we had a great stay & were happy to be able to have our dog with us!

Perfect getaway

The lake house was a perfect getaway for our annual girls week. It accommodated all of us very easily with many spaces to sit and visit. The coffee bar was definitely a hit in the mornings and the deck had the best sunset to enjoy the evening chats. The lake itself was a great way to relax and cool off with a nice sandy bottom. We definitely will be back!

Fun cabin for larger family gathering!

Perfect space for a sibling family get away! The lake was a nice mix of privacy, fishing and developed properties. The cabin was a great space for many people to gather, eat and visit. We would definitely come back!! Our only complaints are the quality of the mattresses in the bunk bed room including the trundle mattress that sank to the floor and the pee smell that room had. Also all the weeds in the overgrown landscaping made for a mosquito haven around the deck and the thistles at the bottom of the deck steps also provided some hassle to walk around and tiptoe through.

Week of October 30,2023

Very nice, comfortable accommodations. A few thoughts though: 1. The TV remote was ridiculously hard to operate since we are not computer scientists. We just wanted to watch "regular" TV, not concerts, music channels, weird cable etc. We called Trent so as to learn how to watch Thursday Nite Football and he was very helpful. But instructions for TV use should be made simpler. 2.The home has several thermostats but they may as well not be there, since when we tried to make minor temperature changes, the thermostat/temperature did NOT change. An Annoyance! Overall, a good experience.

Wonderful lake home

This property has everything you need to enjoy the lake. Plenty of space and bedrooms for our crew of 10 that stayed, especially the huge kitchen area for eating or playing board games. Had a few cousins stop out to play in the water and visit on the deck and all were impressed with this rental. It is so beautifully decorated. The owners were very easy to get ahold of and answered any question that we might have had. Would highly recommend!!

Amazing Oasis

So much room for our family of 4 adults and 3 kids 4-13. Amazingly clean and adorably decorated! You can tell the owners take pride in their property. So much to do with the lake and beach right out the back door, basketball, kayaks, lake floating, pontoon, jet ski, hot tub, grill, sprinklers, outside lounge area, and outdoor eating area and a fire pit with free wood. Even an area for the kids to do chalk! Inside there were plenty of dishes, towels and soaps/things to clean with. Could have used a few more blankets, maybe even ones that were okay for the outside as with the age range so is their internal temperature gauge. But we had brought extra just in case and the towels were also big enough for the purpose. Everyone said the beds were comfortable except the queen upstairs- which was said to be super firm and apparently those guests were not a fan- but an easy fix of switching rooms and all was resolved. There was an issue with the oven heating element not working when we arrived but they were responsive and apologetic and even made up for it during our stay. The area is quiet, safe, and beautiful. Will stay again for sure.

Family Vacation

This house was perfect for our family vacation with multiple families! There was enough space where we were able to spread out, but also be together. The outside space was amazing! The kids spent the majority of the time on the sandy beach! The outdoor activities that were offered also enhanced the amount of fun had during the trip. The property managers were timely in communication, which was very much appreciated! I would definitely recommend this property to others as well as return!

About the host

Hosted by Trent Stadheim

Host profile image
I’m a born and raised South Dakota boy, and while work has pulled me away, my heart is still back home. Last year, my wife and I bought what I consider my dream home on my favorite lake development near Watertown—Air Haven. I know the lakes around here well, and in my opinion, this spot is hands down the best place to relax and enjoy lake life.

My parents live just down the road and help take care of the place. I grew up fishing, skiing, wakeboarding, and jet skiing on Lake Pelican. If you're local, you know Kampeska has gotten a bit wild, and you also know the south side of both lakes is where you'll find calm water most summer days. There's nothing better than sipping coffee on the dock in the morning or enjoying a sunset with a cold drink in hand. I hope you love it here as much as I do.

Why they chose this property

This neighborhood offers a rare combination of privacy, convenience, and lakefront charm. Nestled on a quiet dead-end road with 2 acres of space, it offers a peaceful, secluded atmosphere while still being just minutes from local bars, restaurants, shopping, and the interstate. The property sits right on the lake with a sandy beach, making it feel like your own private waterfront retreat. The surrounding area features unique touches like a private grass runway across the road and scenic meadows perfect for walking and exploring, adding to the one-of-a-kind experience.

What makes this property unique

Our property is truly one-of-a-kind for a vacation getaway. Located right on the lake with a rare sandy beach, it provides the perfect setting for relaxation and fun. The recently remodeled home features beautiful beach-themed décor and thoughtful design throughout. With 3,000 square feet of space, it comfortably accommodates large family groups while offering multiple living areas so everyone can spread out and enjoy their own space. Plus, it’s just a short trip to town, giving you the best of both peaceful lake life and local convenience.
